Chapter 1641 Hong Xiuquan surrendered to Chu
Chapter 1639: Hong Xiuquan surrendered to Chu
"But the military advisor, the Qin army has already gained an absolute advantage on the battlefield in Hebei."
Cao Shen stood up and said slowly: "Even if our army sends troops at this time, it may not be able to stop the Qin army from occupying Hebei."
Cao Shen''s words have come to the point.
The war situation in Hebei has completely turned to the Qin army. Even if the Southern Han sends troops, it may not be stopped. So what is the significance of sending troops?
"Even if you can''t stop it, you will still send troops."
Chen Ping didn''t think about it and said directly: "The intention of sending troops this time is twofold. First, it is to restrain the Qin army''s forces. It is best to force Qin Hao to dispatch troops from Hebei to reduce the pressure on the Northern Han Dynasty.
Second, if the Qin army cannot be stopped from occupying Hebei, our army will take this opportunity to join forces with Li Shimin and others to capture the two prefectures of Jingsi to weaken the Qin army. ”
As he said that, Chen Ping looked at Liu Ji, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "Lord, if you don''t send troops at this time, you will really wait until the Qin army will digest Hebei, and have the six states and control the tens of millions of people. Even if all the princes join forces, they may not be able to check and balance the Qin army, so they must send troops at this time."
Hearing Chen Ping say this, everyone present was silent.
Yes, if the Qin army does not send troops to attack Qin at this time, and the Qin army digests Hebei and has a higher strength, it will really be impossible to balance the Qin army.
As soon as he thought of this, Liu Ji immediately slapped the table and stood up and said in a deep voice: "I have made up my mind and am determined to send troops to attack Qin. Where is Li Changji?"
"I''m here."
A young Confucian scholar stood up. He was Li He, who was known as the Three Lis of the Tang Dynasty, and was known as the "Poetry Ghost", and "Changji" was the face of Li He.
Today, Li He is Liu Ji''s imperial pen, just like Chen Lin, under Yuan Shao.
"Li Changji, you will write a manifesto to fight against Qin. I want everyone in the world to know Qin Hao''s hypocritical and hypocritical face." Liu Ji said in a deep voice.
In the list of literati published by famous artists in the last issue, Li He lived up to expectations and squeezed into the top 36 and was ranked 35th.
Li He''s reputation has increased greatly as a result, and he has a considerable prestige in the hearts of literati all over the world, so it is most suitable for him to write a proclamation to challenge Qin.
"I hope I will write a manifesto that will make Qin Hao infamous for thousands of years." Li He said confidently.
"Um."
Liu Ji nodded with a smile. He naturally knew very well about Li He''s level of his royal pen. He would definitely be able to hit Qin Hao''s reputation by taking action.
"Where are Zhang Song and Zhang Su?"
"I''m here."
The ugly-looking brothers Zhang Song and Zhang Su stood up. They were originally Liu Yu''s subordinates, but in the confrontation with Liu Ji, Liu Yu was repeatedly at a disadvantage, and even their brothers, as civil officials, were captured by Liu Ji.
Although Zhang Song betrayed Liu Zhang in the original history, he was extremely loyal to Liu Yu in this life. Even if Liu Ji cherished his talent and did not dislike his appearance, Zhang Song would rather die than surrender after being captured.
But unexpectedly, Liu Ji later supported Liu Bian to ascend the throne and established the Nanhan Group, and even Liu Yu was forced to join.
Nan Han was established, and the conflict between the two Lius was temporarily suppressed. Liu Ji also took the opportunity to ask Liu Yu for Zhang Song''s wife and children. Liu Yu was not willing to give it to him, and in desperation, the brothers Zhang Song and Zhang Su could only surrender to Liu Ji.
"Zhang Song and Zhang Su, you brothers will contact all countries. I will invite the princes of the world to jointly send troops to fight against the Qin thieves." Liu Ji ordered.
"No."
Zhang Song and Zhang Su shouted in unison.???———
Jiaozhou, Nanhai County.
Liu Xiu''s army was everywhere outside the city, and the city gates in the South China Sea were actually wide open. Hong Xiuquan led his generals out of the city, but not to start a war, but to surrender.
Why did Hong Xiuquan surrender? This has to start with Liu Xiu conquering Chong Heihu.
Chong Heihu is the number one warrior in Jiaozhou, but he is not a Han person. He is a Baiyue person and has a high prestige among Baiyue people.
Hong Xiuquan naturally knew that Chong Heihu had recruited him several times. As a result, because the envoy was too arrogant, Chong Heihu was unhappy, so he decisively refused Hong Xiuquan''s recruitment.
Seeing that Chong Heihu refused him, Hong Xiuquan thought he was interested in Liu Xiu, so he sent someone to assassinate Chong Heihu.
How could ordinary killers kill the God of War? The killers in Hong Xiuquan''s sect were naturally killed by Chong Heihu.
Originally, Chong Heihu was not prepared to become an official. After all, Jiaozhou is now the Han people dominate, but he is a foreigner. However, after Hong Xiuquan''s actions, Chong Heihu had to surrender to Liu Xiu to avoid Hong Xiuquan''s pursuit.
Liu Xiu was very polite to Chong Heihu. As soon as Chong Heihu surrendered to him, Liu Xiu entrusted him with important tasks, which made Chong Heihu completely return to his heart and recommended his two good brothers Cui Ying and Jiang Xiong to Liu Xiu.
Although Cui Ying (Emperor Beiyue) and Jiang Xiong (Emperor Nanyue) did not worship the Black Tiger Strong, they were also stable generals at the level of god-generals. The three of them defected to Liu Xiu together, which also led many small tribes of Baiyue to surrender.
Later, Chong Heihu and the surrendered Wuxi barbarian leader Shamoke, together with the surrendered Wuxi barbarian leader, persuaded three of the seven major clans in Jiaozhou to surrender.
Since then, although Liu Xiu has not unified Jiaozhou, he has already gained an absolute advantage in Jiaozhou. Both the Han and Baiyue have turned towards Liu Xiu, and Hong Xiuquan has basically been isolated.
Hong Xiuquan was not a person with strong will, otherwise he would not have been determined to fight the Northern Expedition when he entered Jiaozhou, but now he only wants to guard this acre of thirds of the land.
Although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has not been completely in desperate situation, and the Eastern Wu is still sharing the pressure for Hong Xiuquan, Liu Xiu learned his lesson after suffering losses and only defended but not attacked in the face of the provocation of the Eastern Wu army.
Therefore, even if there are famous generals like Sun Wu in Eastern Wu who are comparable to Bai Qi, they still cannot break through the defense of the Chu army in the short term, and the Chu army can wipe out Jiaozhou before this.
Hong Xiuquan understood many things in the face of the danger of national destruction.
Since the beginning of the Yellow Turban Uprising, Hong Xiuquan has been reluctant to admit that he is inferior to Huang Chao and Xiang Yu, but now he has to admit that he is really not as good as them.
Therefore, even if the master asked him to inherit the Ming Dynasty, he could not beat geniuses like Qin Hao and Liu Xiu, and the ending of the Ming Dynasty might be even worse.
After repeated defeats, Hong Xiuquan lost all confidence and denied himself. Under exhaustion, he finally chose to surrender to Liu Xiu.
Hong Xiuquan also figured it out. Compared with other princes, he was indeed too mediocre. He could not bear this pressure, and he was really tired.
"I, Hong Xiuquan, I am asking the King of Chu to surrender."
Hong Xiuquan held up the seal of the Heavenly King and the Tiger Talisman of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, knelt down on one knee, and shouted at Liu Xiu on the opposite side.
Liu Xiu looked at Hong Xiuquan, as well as Yang Xiuqing, Shi Dakai, Li Xiucheng and other generals behind him, and then thought for a while and immediately rode his horse over, but was stopped by Chong Heihu and Wei Wentong.
"In order to prevent fraud, the lord should let the last general go and take over the lord." Chong Heihu said.
Wei Wentong nodded, obviously that''s the same.
